Behind them ... gather a group of shattered States and bludgeoned races: the Czechs, the Poles, the Norwegians, the Danes, the Dutch, the Belgians -- upon all of whom the long night of barbarism will descend, unbroken even by a star of hope, unless we conquer, as conquer we must; as conquer we shall.” LongSoulStatesNightStarsSidesRaceBehindsGroupsMankindPagesBritishTyrannyConquerDestroyingRescueShatteredDutchBarbarismUnbrokenNorwegiansLong NightsBelgians Author:Winston Churchill
“There comes a terrible moment to many souls when the great movements of the world, the larger destinies of mankind, which have lain aloof in newspapers and other neglected reading, enter like an earthquake into their own lives--when the slow urgency of growing generations turns into the tread of an invading army or the dire clash of civil war, and grey fathers know nothing to seek for but the corpses of their blooming sons, and girls forget all vanity to make lint and bandages which may serve for the shattered limbs of their betrothed husbands.” KnowsWorldMayWarSoulMomentsTurnsGirlReadingFatherForgetDestinyGrowingGenerationsMankindMovementSonTerribleHusbandArmyNewspapersVanityCivil WarGreyLimbsNeglectedCorpsesClashEarthquakesUrgencyShatteredBloomingAloofInvadingBandages Book:Daniel Deronda Source: Daniel Deronda

"There is something whereby each broken thing is bound again and every stain made clean." "What?" "Forgiveness" "Whom do I forgive?" "Everyone: Life, God, your neighbor especially yourself." "How is that done?" "By understanding that no one is to blame," said the Master. "NO ONE.” MadeSaidSoulDoneLife IsEvilUnderstandingMastersBrokenBlameForgivingCleanBoundsGlassesNeighborMy SoulLife Is LikeShatteredVisitorsStainsTaintedBroken ThingsShattered Glass Author:Anthony de Mello
